Police involvement in drug-related crimes is a significant challenge for the Fiji Police Force, with three cases currently in court and more being investigated. Acting Commissioner Juki Fong Chew urges the public to report any officers allegedly involved in drug-related activities.
He states that due process must be followed, and officers must be taken to court. If found guilty, they will be sent home and unfit for the organization. Chew emphasizes the need for collaboration to safeguard people and urges the public to report officers rather than publicly discussing the issue.
Information sharing is another challenge, as sometimes reliable information is not verified before a team is set up for a raid. Chew also warns that police involvement is another challenge, and people should be cautious about who they share or report.
